Wireless sensor networks require energy-efficient and robust routingprotocols. Most routing protocols for sensor networks try to extendnetwork lifetime by minimizing the energy consumption, but have not taken the network reliability into account. In this paper, we analyze the fault models and propose an ENergy-aware FAult-tolerantRouting scheme, termed as ENFAR. Firstly a link-based uniform fault model is presented, and we adopt a cross-layer design to measurethe transmission delay so as to detect the failed nodes.

Short Circuit Fault

Stator winding inter turn short-circuit fault is one of the most common internal faults of fault-tolerant machine, which can disconnect the fault phases and keep operating correctly in the event of a failure. Stator winding short-circuit fault model is established through analysis. Based on finite element method, the high-power density fault-tolerant machine internal magnetic field simulation and analysis is implemented using Maxwell2D and induced voltage frequency spectrum is analyzed by FFT method. The characteristics of stator winding short-circuit faults are summarized, which lay a solid foundation for fault-tolerant machine earlier faults prediction and winding switching.

AbstractUnfortunately, we cannot rely on designed and possibly already manufactured systems to operate as expected. These systems may have become defective during their use, or their function may have been compromised during the fabrication or their design. The purpose of testing is to verify whether or not an existing embedded/cyber-physical system can be operated as expected. In this chapter, we will present fundamental terms and techniques for testing. There will be a brief introduction to the aims of test pattern generation and their application. We will be introducing terms such as fault model, fault coverage, fault simulation, and fault injection. Also, we will be presenting techniques which improve testability, including the generation of pseudo-random patterns, and signature analysis. It would be beneficial to consider testability issues already during design. In case of fault-tolerant systems, resilience must be verified.

AbstractIn order to mitigate or even eliminate the adverse effects caused by typical components faults of aircraft engines, an active fault-tolerant strategy based on multi-model predictive control is proposed, which consists of a pre-established multi-model library, a judgement module, and corresponding predictive controllers with smooth transition switching logic. Multiple dynamic nonlinear or linear models are firstly established by means of system identification methods, based on the component-level nonlinear engine model or historical data in faults cases. The judgement module is utilized to online compare the engine measured outputs with that of all models in the pattern library and select the best matched dynamic model on the basis of outputs error quadratic performance index, thus determining the most appropriate predictive controller for the next control sample period. When a certain fault occurs, the fault model in the library could be identified and fault-model based predictive controller is activated. Finally, two kinds of pre-considered high-pressure compressor and high-pressure turbine component-level faults are taken as an example to design the active fault-tolerant controller. Simulation results show that the judgement module owns the ability to sense the fault and gives smooth switching signal to the suitable predictive controller, verifying the effectiveness of the proposed technique.

Simple Implementation

One of the most recent members of the Paxos family of protocols is Generalized Paxos. This variant of Paxos has the characteristic that it departs from the original specification of consensus, allowing for a weaker safety condition where different processes can have a different views on a sequence being agreed upon. However, much like the original Paxos counterpart, Generalized Paxos does not have a simple implementation. Furthermore, with the recent practical adoption of Byzantine fault tolerant protocols in the context of blockchain protocols, it is timely and important to understand how Generalized Paxos can be implemented in the Byzantine model. In this paper, we make two main contributions. First, we attempt to provide a simpler description of Generalized Paxos, based on a simpler specification and the pseudocode for a solution that can be readily implemented. Second, we extend the protocol to the Byzantine fault model, and provide the respective correctness proof.

The study substantiates the necessity of clock synchronization in distributed multicomputer systems. The basic definitions related to the concept of clock synchronization are given, and methods of clock synchronization are classified. Increasing the lifecycle of failure- and fault-tolerant distributed multicomputer systems for critical application is one of the most urgent problems at the current level of technology development. This is especially true for unattended distributed multicomputer systems for space applications. The second part deals with synchronization in systems with Byzantine faults, and this is a complex task due to the characteristic features of the fault model. The synchronization process in multi-cluster and multi-complex systems is associated with the multitasking of such systems, which makes the synchronization process even more relevant and multi-criteria. The paper considers the modern technologies providing the synchronization process in systems of critical use.
